MaxGXL Clinical Study Results

Dr. Robert Keller MD, MS, FACP, AAHIV recently presented the results of a Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Crossover clinical study at a conference held by the American Academy of Anti-Aging in Washington, D.C.

Clinical results documented an average increase of 292% in intercellular Glutathione levels for persons taking MaxGXL for 60 days. Amazingly, the same report showed an average increase of 46% of DHEA and 40.8% for IGF-1, both markers related to levels of human growth hormone, the indicators of true biological age. Furthermore, TNF improved 37%. TNF (Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha) is one of the three most significant markers of cellular inflammation.

The benefits of taking MaxGXL include the following:

Improved energy.
Better quality of sleep.
Improved mood.
Improved mental focus.
Decreased aches and pain.

In an unrelated study, researchers recently discovered that Centenarians between the ages of 100 to 105 years of age have Glutathione levels similar to 30-50 year old well, physically fit, normals.

Does increased Glutathione levels in your body help you live longer? Given the choice, I think I would rather have an ample supply of Glutathione in my body than be Glutathione deficient.

Comments about Glutathione from Doctors

Glutathione is Vital to your Health

As we age, there is a precipitous drop in Glutathione levels. Lower Glutathione levels have been implicated in many diseases associated with aging. Journal of Clinical Epidemiology 47: 1021-28 1994 Antioxidants are well documented to play vital roles in health maintenance and disease prevention. Glutathione is your cells' own major antioxidant. Biochemical Pharmacology 47: 2113-2123 1994

Glutathione plays a role in eliminating many carcinogens as well as maintaining immune function. Cancer Letters 57: 91-94 1991

Strong muscular activity, such as that experienced by athletes, generates oxy-radicals (free radicals) leading to muscle fatigue and poorer performance. Glutathione neutralizes these radicals. Sport Medicine 21: 213-238, 1996

In the annual Review of Biochemistry 52: 711-780 1983 Lester Packer, Ph.D., writes that maintaining high levels of Glutathione is critical for life and that low glutathione levels are a marker for death at an early age. Glutathione diminishes as we age.

Glutathione detoxifies many pollutants, carcinogens, and poisons, including many in fuel exhaust and cigarette smoke. It retards damage from radiation such as seen with loss of the ozone.

Researchers have found that people over the age of 60 who have high blood levels of Glutathione have fewer illnesses, lower cholesterol and blood pressure and healthier weights than people with lower levels.

People over 69 with low blood levels of Glutathione are more likely to have diabetes, arthritis and heart disease. Glutathione truly is an amazing anti-oxidant, immune booster and detoxifier.

Living Longer and Being Healthier

“We've found several ways to live an extra decade or two—in good health. The easiest and surest way: Increase your body's supply of Glutathione, a natural compound that is a tripeptide (combination of three amino acids).” —Dr. David Williams.

The anti-oxidant Glutathione is composed of the amino acids glycine, glutamic acid, and cysteine. Glutathione plays a major role in removing various toxic chemicals from the body. As a result, Glutathione levels in the body are reduced by stress, pollution, and exposure to heavy metals such as mercury, lead, cadmium, and the chemicals used in chemotherapy.

In animal experiments, increased Glutathione consumption increases longevity by about 40%. Glutathione is an antioxidant that reduces the effects of diseases linked to free radical damage. Low levels of Glutathione can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, cataracts, macular degeneration, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, the destruction of immune cells associated with AIDS, and inflammatory bowel disease. It is important to note that most diseases are preceded by Glutathione deficiency.

Living to 100 and Beyond

In a recent study, the Odense University in Denmark compared the levels of Glutathione in 41 Centenarians between 100-105 years old to that in 52 community controls between the ages of 60-79. They found that the mean Glutathione activity was significantly higher in Centenarians than in the group of younger elderly subjects, and that Centenarians with the best functional capacity tended to have the highest Glutathione levels.

Increasing Your Glutathione Levels

Clinical research has documented that MaxGXL can dramatically raise Glutathione levels in your body. MaxGXL can help you feel better, look better, have more energy, and live longer.

Glutathione and ADHD Children

The effect of low Glutathione levels in children suffering from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) belongs to the neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by impulsivity, distractibility and hyperactivity. In the pathogenesis of ADHD genetic and non-genetic factors play an important role. It is assumed that one of non-genetic factors could be oxidative stress.

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study investigated the influence of intercellular reduced Glutathione and oxidized Glutathione in children suffering from ADHD and total antioxidant status (TAS). This is the first investigation of the redox Glutathione state in relation to ADHD.

RESULTS: One month of Glutathione administration caused a significant decrease in oxidized Glutathione and a highly significant increase in Glutathione levels as well as improvement of Glutathione/oxidized Glutathione ratio in comparison to a group of patients taking a placebo. TAS in children with ADHD was decreased in comparison with reference values. Glutathione administration normalized the TAS of ADHD children in this study.

Glutathione and Vision

Aging individuals encounter higher rates of cataract, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. Diabetics are at particularly high risk for cataract. The high blood sugar levels found in diabetics have a direct effect on lens health and elevating oxidative stress.

One the most feared concerns in the elderly is going blind or having a major loss of vision. Scientific studies conclusively show that degenerative eye disease is not inevitable.

The concentration of Glutathione in the lens of the eye is higher than in most other tissues. Glutathione protects the structural proteins and enzymes necessary for the maintenance of lens flexibility and clarity against free radical assault.

Aging lenses of the eye lose Glutathione, and this reduction of Glutathione has been found to lead directly to reactions that cause deterioration of the lens.
